ABOUT ME

I love making things with my own two hands - be it sweaters, drawings, furniture or tasty food. I usually have to kick myself in the ass to finish all of the projects I start, though.

I enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures. I always try to keep an open mind.

I'm a vegetarian, and I love to cook. A potentially wonderful combination for host and surfer alike?

Oh, and I'm an introvert, but a lot of people are surprised to know that ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Marseille in 2009. Had a blast seeing parts of the city I might not have seen otherwise, and hanging out with my host!

Interests

Love learning languages. Love food - eating it and cooking it. Love music, movies, reading, art, nature, meaningful conversation, and having fun :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I always hate answering these questions because there are too many good movies, musicians, and books!

Books that I can't put down, and/or stay with me for a long time after I've finished the last page.

I am a huge movie buff, but I don't generally care for blockbusters. I really like documentaries, art house, and independent films.

I like lots of different kinds of music, too. There's probably something from every genre I could find myself listening to. Good musicians are good musicians!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacked through Thailand for three months. Nothing original these days, but I did get charged at by a wild elephant in Khao Yai National Park. That was a little more terrifying than amazing, though.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to knit yourself a toasty sweater if you live somewhere that gets cold!
